Getting into Hanoi
Bus, taxi and Uber
Taxi
Taxis are well-regulated at the airport. Negotiate a rate from the airport to the city centre for around VND 345,000 (USD 15) and you can request a drop-off at your hotel. Taxis don’t pay the toll at the airport booths. The journey should take 30-40 minutes depending on traffic. Taxi rates for other destinations are published on a board near arrivals. If you have a hotel booked, ask them to dispatch a driver.
Uber
Uber now operates in Hanoi. They will collect you at the domestic or international terminals from the car park. Uber Black drivers tend to speak English and cost approximately the same as an airport taxi; Uber X is half the price but generally do not speak English.
Bus
This is the cheapest option. Bus number 7 crosses the Thang Long Bridge to the Daewoo Hotel. Prices are VND 9000 (USD 0.40). Luggage is generally not permitted, but you can offer to pay for the baggage as well. Buses run every 30 minutes and the journey takes approximately 1.5 hours.
